Alternative to OpenSSL in Indy SMTP component

Question

When running component SMTP and POP too, am getting AV in OpenSSL library, as I found several complaints about this on Google, I would use an alternative to OpenSSL.

I'm sure that the component of Indy has no error because Remy Lebeau is the master, but I need an alternative. Will I have to leave this beautiful work which is the component of Indy?

Answer 1

Indy's OpenSSL usage is fairly well tested, and used by many people without problem. If you are having AVs with it, I would suspect a bug in your own code before I suspect a problem with Indy. That's not to say that Indy is perfect and bug free, of course. So if you suspect an Indy or OpenSSL bug, you need to provide specific details, code snippets, etc to verify it, otherwise no one can help you. If you have seen other complaints, provide links to them.

As for your actual question, there are third-party alternatives available, such as EldoS SecureBlackbox, which includes an TIdIOHandler SSL implementation for Indy.
